Once I had this dream of beeing a professional developer. I do not dream of that anymore, if I dream of it, it would be a nightmare. This summer i have had a few programming projects and my income this summer is based on them. I want developing to be fun, not a job. It would be better if I had an office where I could get peace to the work, and a limited part of the day where I would have to worry about getting the project done.

The way it have been this summer really makes me think that I dont even want to work with computers. But thats not really the problem. The problem is that acacemic work always take a part of your mind, even when you dont work. Or especially when you dont work. And you need good inspiration to get the work done. If you dont have just the perfect working enviroment you’ll really have to twist your mind to get those good ideas. Not too hot, not to cold, not too much noise, and no relaitves or other people expecting you to be social. There is a reason why people have the occupation that geeks are not capable of beeing social. Some geeks may even try to make this impression on their enviroment, beacause then noone will bother him while he is working.

And people are bothering us when we are working. I believe this is beacause they think that youngsters are just playing games on their computers, and are never doing anything important. When we explain that its important to get this work done they dont understand it. My explaination is just technobabble for them.
